Frequently asked questions
-
In the S tier, the service is billed for only the amount of Text Records submitted to the service.
-
A text record in the S tier contains up to 1,000 characters as measured by StringInfo.LengthInTextElements. If an input document into the text analytics API is more than 1,000 characters, it counts as one text record for each unit of 1,000 characters. For instance, if an input document sent to the API contains 7,500 characters, it would count as 8 text records. If an input document sent to the API contains 500 characters, it would count as 1 text record. If two documents are submitted, one document of 500 characters and one document of 1,200 characters, then the service would be billed for three text records in total: one record for the 500 character document and two text records for the 1,200 character document. You can check your text records usage in your Text Analytics resource in Azure portal under Monitoring > Metrics > Processed Text Records.
-
Usage is throttled if the transaction limit is reached on the Free tier. Customers cannot accrue overages on the free tier.
-
Let us say an API call performs both sentiment analysis and key-phrase extraction on 1,000 documents, that will count for 2,000 transactions (2 × 1,000 documents). The maximum size of a single document is 5,120 characters as measured by StringInfo.LengthInTextElements. If a document has more than 5,120 chars then we do not process that specific document and show invalid document as the error. If a request has multiple documents, then we process all documents which are less than 5,120 characters. S0-S4 tiers have been deprecated. Guide on how to migrate.
